ENERGY SAVING AND UNIT SAFETY PROTECTION TIPS • • • • • • • Do not cover or restrict the airflow from the outlet or inlet grills. For maximum performance the minimum distance from a wall or objects should be 50cm. Please make sure, while in operation, the water in the water tank does not exceed the MAX level and does not fall below MIN. Keep the filters clean. Under normal conditions, filters should only need cleaning once every three weeks (approximately).
HOW EVAPORATIVE AIR COOLERS WORK The air cooler cools the air by means of evaporation. When water evaporates into the air, the result is a mixture of air and water molecules. This chemical change requires heat which is taken from the water molecules, resulting in a spot cooling effect. • The recommended relative humidity for optimum operation is 60% or lower. A drier climate makes for more noticeable cooling. • The evaporative air cooler should not be used in enclosed or sealed spaces.
